To those who $ave closely followed the testimony in the suit of Sir William Gordon Camming against a number of rather fishy aristocrats, of both sexes, the verdict in favor of the defendants could not have been a surprise. The plaintiff in the case, a dislin guished officer in the British army, a man of high birth and ample fortune, was, with the prince of Wales and sever al other titled and untitled notables, a guest at the country home— Tranbycroft —of the Wilsons, a wealthy family who appear to owe their social position chiefly to the favor of the Prince. The time of the party at Tranbycroft seems to have been pretty much occu pied at the race track and in playing the seductive game of baccarat for pretty high stakes, the meu and women, and the youngster of tho family, being all participators. A number of tho party, including the Wilsous. who wore tho hosts, charged that they had detected Sir William Gordon Gumming cheating in the game; and indeed, they pretty clearly proved tiie charge, if their evi dence is to bo considered, and they were not actually guilty of a conspiracy to ruin a gallant soldier, a gentleman of high rank and the highest social posi tion, whoso previous career lias been one of great brilliancy and unsullied honor. It is remarkable, however, that tho sympathy of tho Britisli public appears to bo largely witii Gordon Gumming, nnd and that, while after tho jury had gone against him, lie walked forth erect from tho court room with unflinching eye, and amid the loud and general approval of tho populace, while the defendants, who had gained the leg.il victory sneaked away like so many convict*. How is tliis to be accounted for? Tho English people love a brave inan, and they are not in the habit of going back on a splendid follow, who lias gained their hearts by his valor, gener osity and cordial manners toward the common people for any small matter. But it must be considered that it is uo small matter for n man, such as the plaintiff in tliis case, to he caught cheat ing ids friends iu social games of cards. However, be that as it may, and though Sir William Gordon Gumming will, un questionably, bo expelled from tho clubs and otherwise socially ostracised, there is no question that lie lias a strong party of tho aristocracy at Ills back, and that tho British peoplo aro standing by him with marked enthusiasm. Taking a view of the whole matter, it is a most disgraceful episode in English social life. Tho man who has tho sym pathy of tho public, has been virtually convicted of the ineauest sort of cheat ing; the defendants have been discredi ted and disgraced, while tlio Prince of Wales, the whilhom friend of tiie un fortunate baronet and who turned against his friend in his sorest hour, vi olating his pledge for the purpose of disgracing 1dm, lias been shown to be a common rako and gambler, circulating amongst tiie country home* of the gen try with id* gambling apparatus and' playing banker first In one place and then another. •* * But one lino figure stand* out in this disgraceful drama of Tranbycroft, that of Sir Edward Glarkc, the attorney for the plaintiff. This brilliant and distin guished barrister, paid hi* attentions, in hi* speech to the jury, to tiie prince of Wales iu a manner which is likely to im press that personage with the fact, that, true and loyal as tho English peoplo aro to tho mounrchy, and sonsiderato as thoy aro of tho dignity and honor of the royal family, there lias arisen in that great ompire a spirit which will sustain such attack, even upon the princes who dosccnd from the high and honored place* to which they were born to engago in the practices of rakes, roysterers ami gamblers. To conclude, the fact is remarkable, that the swindler in this business bolds the best position before tiie people of b}* own country and of the world, and the princo of Wales, tiie heir of the British empire, the most sorry and disgraceful. There is some doubt as to the actual guilt of Sir William Gordon Cumroing. There is no question as to the character of the amusements aud occupations of the prince of Wales. THK “FAKE" LIAR 8TII.I. LIVES. Joe Mulhatton may be in a Chicago in sane asylum and the Milan, Tenn., liar may have been suppressed by the Nash ville papers, but there are yet plenty of lineal descendants of these two menda cious characters. For instance, the am bitious eon of Munchausen who tele graphs that “a swarin of bees alighted on the inside of tiie roof of a fast traiu on the rennsylvauia railroad a few days ago ” *1 he *»ory further goes that the engi neer stopped the train and got out of the cab until the owner could hive the swarm. The engineer declined to pro ceed with the train until the bees were moved, for fear that if he did they might administer a stinging rebuke. St. Deter will administer a stinging re buke to tlio sacrilegious sou of Belial who “got off’ that whopper—sure! A SENSIBLE YOUNG WOMAN. That was a wise young woman who advertised for a farmer as a husband. She knows that the farmer Is the coming man. She wants to get into tho alli ance, both matrimonial and agricultural, at once. In tho past, the farmer was consider ed undesirable by husband hunting girls. Then they reasoned that a farmer’s wife bad to work too hard, and was deprived of the pleasures of fashionable society aud fine dress, while the wife of a city man lived for plcasuro only. But now, with a woman’s quick intuition, they can see that the farmer is the coming man, that he may soon enjoy advantages above all other men in the way of bor rowing money from ITncle Sam at two per cent, and in the holding of all the fat offices Girls, keep your loving eyes on tho farmers. Skvkuai. persons were recently seriously and two fatally poisouedat Pittsburg as the result of eating smoked fisli, an examination of which showed that it was unfit for human food before it was cured. There is very little differ ence in principal between putting arsenic iu an enemy’s coffee and sending poisonous stuff, in the form of food, broadcast through tiie markets of tiie country. The difference is in degree, for tho man who commits a definite crime on account of a definite enemy is rather more respectable than the one who hazards the life of Innoceut persons whom lie lias never seen for the sake of a few moan dollars. Before the country is many years older there will be more stringent legislation governing the pro duction ami sale of food, and theso will be enforced, for the abuse strikes home to every man. JUDQlNu from developments, the “highest social circles’’ do not so much object to gambling or cheating at cards. It Is the getting caught which is the dis grace they dread. BEALL & OAKLEY. BARGAINS!
